My very own mould

I wanted to create my own moulds for clay and have been wondering how to proceed.First I stamped into fimo to make a leafy background.Then I cut out a lozenge shape and baked it.

Clay base with embellishments

here is an idea of how this looked-the bits have since fallen off.Anyway its the previous stage with bits added.This is what I pressed into the mould compound.

Mould mania

Here are my latest experiments with moulds.First the Krafty lady one which are brilliant.I used UEE and fimo here.I dusted the moulds with mica powders before using fimo soft.The pansy and faceis the fimo.the paler ones are UTEE.

I also bought some hard amaco moulds which I tried.The fimo ones were again dusted with mica.they do ease out gently with a craft knife.Some of the designs are great and they were a bargain on ebay.these are the pinky hearts

Lastly amaco again with UTEE.they do come out!!.I chose shallow ones and sprayed with silicone first.I can now make some more inerestingly coloured ones.These are the bronze daisy and leaves
